Question

Starting from rest, a car accelerates at a constant rate of 3.0 m/s2 for a time of 5 seconds.

  1. Compute the velocity of the car at 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, and 5s.
  2. Graph the velocity values against time. (x-axis is time, y-axis is velocity)
  3. Compute the distance traveled by the car for 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, and 5s.
  4. Graph the distance values against time. (x-axis is time, y-axis is distance)
